Tempation seeks a face
Of cold relentless shadows
Fear is our desire
And love can run the gallows.
Demons beg for mercy
As they're forced upon their knees
Knife blades move too swiftly
To regard forgiving pleas.
Yet somewhere in this madness
We find a sea of calm
Desecrated waters
That carry us along.
The spirits that you capture
Have no sense of what we are
Mouths contorted rapture
As they bleed from broken scars.
Funneling all pain
We've felt in the past
Sorrow feels too good
We strive to make this last.
Bloody liquid turned to sweat
So freely can it flow
As you feed upon my threats
And completely let it go.
Power surges through me
As bodies slowly die
Dreams and hopes are broken
And agony rips the sky.
Your fingers tangle in my hair
And I'm drawn into your world
Desire and perversion,
Passion is unfurled.
Sex decieves the nature
As feelings beg mature
We're only in it for the scare
So let's divide it all impure.
We're only living in our nightmares
To watch the demons cry
Fuck a god that doesn't care
And broken, say goodbye.
